Chapter 324
Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 324
Catherine pursed her thin lips. She recalled the way Shaun had spoken when she left yesterday. Was it
his doing?
General Manager Wolfe said, “We’ve spent 50 billion dors on this plot ofnd. If we don’t get our
project started as soon as possible, our capital chain will break and ourpany will be left high and dry.
If that’s the case, you and the other directors might run the risk of going to jail.”
“I’ll find a way out,” Catherine hesitated before she replied.
After the meeting ended, she went to the office to call Shaun only to discover that he had blocked her
number.

She gave a bitterugh. Apparently, she had offended him.
She had no choice but to ask Joel for help. After Joel enquired about the matter, he found it strange.
“Cathy, who did you offend? Even I failed to help you this time. I’m sure this isn’t the Wicks family’s
doing.”
“I have no idea who I’ve offended either. Let me try and recall.”
Catherine ended the call in a daze. She did not intend to ask Joel to invest in thepany to solve the
working capital issue. After all, thepany was not solely Joel’s. Investing over tens of billions of
dors would require Old Master Yule’s approval. Anyway, Old Master Yule would definitely reject the
request.
In the afternoon, Chris came to the office. “Cathy, here’s ten billion dors or so for the working capital. It
should be able to support thepany for the time being.”
“Uncle Chris…” Catherine was touched. Under such circumstances, every other director was just
criticizing things and defending themselves. They were not willing to contribute any money.
“Your mom built thispany painstakingly. I don’t wish to see it shut down.” Chris let out a long sigh.
“By the way, what did you find out about your mom’s death?”
After some thought, Catherine replied, “I think my mom’s death has nothing to do with the Wicks family. I
bumped into Fergus previously and he was not at all bothered about the incident of hurting me. When I
mentioned my mom’s death though, he looked puzzled and didn’t seem to be lying.”
“That’s strange. Before your mom passed away, herst call came from Canberra.” Chris felt bewildered.
“Was there someone else behind the incident?”
Catherine rubbed her temples. Her mind was in a mess.
Chris could tell that she was worn out. After a while, he said helplessly, “The stress you’re experiencing
now is too much for you at this young age. If you can’t handle it, just return to Melbourne.”
“…Okay.”
Catherine was in a daze. At times, she felt that she should not havee to Canberra at all. Originally,
she thought that her rtionship with Joel could improve, which would allow her to gradually gain the
upper hand. Nevertheless, the Wicks family was reliant on the Hill family who served as their strong
support.
Indeed, she was worn out.
She was out the next few days. However, the relevant parties refused to meet her.
When she walked out of the property bureau, she happened toe across Liam.
Liam was stunned to see her. After not seeing her for some time, he noticed the pale look on the
illegitimate daughter of the Yule family’s face. It seemed that she had not been sleeping well the past few
days.
She looked tall in a light blue knitwear and a white skirt. Her features were attractive, and her ck hair
casually fell over her shoulders. Indeed, her beauty could easily evoke a man’s pity.
“You look tired, Miss Jones. Are you facing any issues?” Liam asked with a smile. His appearance was
different from Shaun’s. Shaun’s strong features exuded an aura of indifference. In contrast, there was an
aura of elegance on Liam. Liam had soft features, and he looked boyish when he smiled.
“Yeah. There’s an issue with thepany.” Catherine nodded weakly at him.
Liam raised his brows in surprise. “I’m on good terms with themissioner here. Perhaps I can lend
you a hand?”
Catherine was dumbfounded. She had not nned on asking him for help. After all, he was part of the
Hill family. Having said that, she seemed to be left with no alternative.
“Anyway… If I help you, you’ll then owe me a favor.” Liam winked at her with a smile.
Catherine forced a smile. “Considering my low status, I might not be able to return the favor, Second
Young Master Hill.”
“It depends. Given that you were able to keep yourposure even on the verge of death, I think you’re
promising.” Liam suddenly gazed at her and smiled. “I understand how you’re feeling right now. Our
situation is simr. In the Hill family, people always call me an illegitimate son who ruined the family.”
